Filebase
Pros
- + Genuine S3 API compatibility (SigV4, AWS SDKs) — migrate in and out without re-architecting
- + Excellent price story: $0.015 per GB-month, free object egress on paid plans with no cap, free inbound and deletes
- + Straightforward plans: free 5 GB tier without a credit card, Pro at $7.50/month for 500 GB
- + IPFS integration done for you: pinning, per-bucket CIDs, gateways, IPNS names and static sites
- + Billing documentation is unusually explicit about what is metered and what is not
Cons
- - Vendor-stated 99% uptime and no public SLA — a procurement problem for regulated workloads
- - Very small company (single-digit headcount) running production storage infrastructure
- - IPFS bandwidth is billed separately: gateway, bitswap and Sites traffic can surprise you
- - No published datacenter locations or data residency guarantees
- - Limited platform beyond storage: no compute, no databases; older pages still describe tiers that no longer exist
Bunny Storage
Pros
- + Free delivery into Bunny CDN, free API egress, and zero request fees — the opposite of hyperscaler billing
- + Simple pricing: $0.01/GB per region Standard (HDD), $0.02/GB Edge (SSD), $1 monthly minimum
- + 15 storage regions with automatic replication and region failover; 99.99% availability SLA
- + S3-compatible API (rclone, presigned URLs, SHA256 checksums) plus HTTP API, FTP/SFTP, and web file manager
- + One-click integration as origin for Bunny pull zones, with Perma-Cache for permanent edge storage
Cons
- - S3 compatibility is in public preview and must be enabled per zone at creation — not a finished S3 platform
- - No cold/archive tier: backup-style retention pays full Standard or Edge rates
- - Edge SSD tier's primary region is Frankfurt only; Standard zones can be created in any region
- - Free egress is scoped to Bunny CDN — neutral multi-cloud storage architectures will feel constrained
- - Unverified claim in the old listing: object versioning and CORS specifics were not documented on reviewed pages
